MEEDEN Empty Watercolour Tin Paint Case with 12 Pcs Half Pans

Great quality, great size, I wanted the largest as I have many half pans I've poured from tubes and I've had to put them in several little tins as I didn't have anything big enough. I just wanted one or two main tins to take away with me on holidays so I don't have to bring several. Came in its own box, nice and secure. There were two marks on mine, like hard enamel or something, took some scratching off, but they don't interfere with my paints so I'm not bothered. I love the large mixing area, I make do with the smaller tins but this is a welcome change. Pans are easy to fit in, you can bend back the metal holdings inside with ease, and nothing rattles around too much. Does its job. I can even get some handmade bought pans in the center, some pans are a tad smaller than the average half pan, so I could technically get more than 52 pans. Well worth it for traveling artists, or those of you who have loads of half pans spread out in many little tins. It's nice to keep them all in one.

I am pleased with this. My Windsor & Newton palette was a PAIN to open and I really did not like it. (I see others have the same problem with it). This palette is so much better for me. The W&N pans DO fit. Mine have not fallen out. Yes, they are slightly smaller than the ones that come with this, but they do fit. I took one of the panels by taking out the pin. However, when I did this, the palette wobbled and wouldn’t close, so I guess it is integral for the stability of the palette. Pros: Takes W&N pans. Plenty of spare pans. Tons of space in a small palette than the W&N one. Nice to hold. Metal and not plastic. Cons: Reminds me of the toys I was unlucky enough to receive as a child in the sixties labelled, “made in Hong Kong.” Not brilliantly made, it wobbles and flexes and needs careful handling. A bit fiddly to get the pans in and out. All in all, I think it’s perfectly good for the price. I will get another one as my paint stash expands.

This is a very sturdy metal pallet with lots of space to mix colours. The pans are a little bigger that my W&N pans but you get a pack that fit better. I am still using the pans I had though as you can adjust the tension easily, they just rattle a bit but they do stay in the track so no big deal to me. Plenty of room for a brush or 3 too, I only use 3 of the tracks for my paints so I use the other track for a couple of water brushes. Compact, lightweight, sturdy and easy to use. I have had it a little while now and I expect it to last quite a long time.

Great little tin for building your own palette of colours. It comes complete with empty half pans and you can fit extra half pans in the empty middle section. Great price, built in mixing areas perfect for use at home or on the go. Would recommend.

Lovely little watercolour paint tin. Comes with 14 half pans, but I’ve ordered extra pans, as 6 more will fit in the middle. Has two side areas for mixing. Perfect for fitting in a handbag and going outdoor painting.

A handy sized paint tin for half and full pans , ready for tube or solid pigments. The metal thickness is a little under size and makes the case feel a little flimsy but this does not affect its functionality in the short term at least. It is not match the quality of the Winsor and Newton cases of old if that's what you're looking for. For the price point it's reasonable value. The fit of the inner pan holder is loose in the case and rattles about - this can be fixed with some strips of foam or sponge and stops the pans moving around when brushing the pigment.

Nice tin but does appear to have been removed from packaging previously and inner wrap open and tin scratched.

These palettes are amazing! I have the Sennelier watercolours, and the palette is identical to the one sent by this company! It even has the holding ring on the back. I paid a massive amount for my Sennelier palette and it’s amazing quality, and there’s absolutely no difference between the two palettes except for the shape of the wells on the right. They even have the same way to hold the watercolour pans in place. (See picture). I’ve bought 2 in my first order of the 48 half pan ones. And I’ve just purchased a further 24 half pan one. I honestly can’t say enough good things about these! These will forever be my favourite watercolour palettes from now on. I can’t believe I’ve spent so much more on other palettes that pale in comparison to these.
